Healing Trauma

I qualified as a Registered Psychiatric Nurse in 1981 and have worked for the NHS in Community Mental health for well over 30 years. Here I have held my own one-to-one caseload and practiced interactive and supportive therapy.

For well over 20 of these years, I have focused on working with complex trauma and have trained in EMDR 1&2, Brain Spotting, CRM (Comprehensive Resource Model – Lisa Schwartz), DBR (Deep Brain Reorienting – Dr Frank Corrigan) and TDS (Towards a Dialectical Self – Dr Gordon Barclay)

I have gained much experience with many problems and diagnoses using an eclectic mix of models adapted individually to meet the needs of my clients.

When working with complex trauma and PTSD I work with processing the non-processed trauma experience as well as looking at our learned and maladapted responses in a way to make sense of and understand why we feel the way we do. I have used these techniques extensively in my work and am now offering these skills privately so they can reach more people.
